Higglety Pigglety Pop!: Or There Must Be More to Life by Maurice Sendak

5.0

I found this on display when I was exploring the children's section of our gorgeous library (East Baton Rouge has THE BEST public library system) and sat down for the quick read. I forgot how lovely Maurice Sendak's art is, with all its fine detail even in black and white. This is one of the most surrealist kid's books I've read and I really enjoyed it, partly because the dog ran off to find meaning in her life and partly because I was also reading Fifteen Dogs at the time, which ramped up the meaning of the plot for me (good read, but not at all a children's book). Just delightful.
